Mr.. Morris Evidently Does Not Like
the German.
MlledgeuilIe (Go) Correspondence AtLanta Con-
Stttutton
Milledgeville is just passing through a
genuine epidemic of excitement. On last
Saturday morning the Chronicle, of this
city, under the editorial management of Mr..
Thomas H. Morris, contained an imaginary
interview with lone fisherman in regard
to the german. This city has just passed
through two weeks of social events, and the
utter disgust that the article showed toward
the german caused Indignation among
society people Saturday night rewards
were offered for its author, and Sunday
morning, when MIR. Morris heard of il,
he promptly made known @the fact that
he was its author, and those who felt them
selves personally aggrieved could apply to
him for satisfaction. 1t was then stated
that committee of men who frequented
the social balls and dances would call on
him and demand retraction. Sunday and
Monday passed away, but the committee
did not call. Early Tuesday morning a
rumor gained currency that gentleman
from abroad would resent what he consid-
cred a personal insult. An investigation
proved that Sheriff c. w. Ennis arrived
from Macon Monday night, and that Mr..
Harper Gilmore, of Sandersville, had in
structed him to tell Mr.. Morris that he
would arrive Tuesday morning for the pulr-
pose of getting a retraction at all hazards,
kill or get killed.
The people over the city who were &C
quainted with the two men, naturally eX-
pected that a tragedy would be the result
The morning was spent in breathless anx-
iety, and at 3 O'Clock, whenit was announced
that Gilmore had arrived, the excitement
was intense. Mr.. Gilmore, accompanied by
his friends, was escorted to the office of
Messrs T. E. White q Co, The streets were
filled with people, while on a platform near
the Chronicle office, Mr.. Morris was seen
walking from end to end quietly awaiting
the attack Mutual friends called
upon Mr. Gilmore and advised him to leave
the city and not attack Mr.. Morris. After
consideration Mr.. Gilmore returned to San
dersville on the o'clock train 1t was ru-
mored that some gross insults were given
Mr. Morris, but investigation proved that
there had not been any direct communica-
ton between Mr.. Morris and any of the
gentlemen. No warrants were taken out.
The affair has created a. sensation here, and
it is not known whether it is at an end or
not. Public sentiment is divided on the
matter.

apple and the operation-was a very bloody
one, great care being necessary to escape
the large blood vessels. 1t was impossible
for the patient to talk with this tube in his
throat unless he pressed his finger upon the
tube. Less than 20 per cent of those thus
operated upon recovered,
In 1865 Bouchut, a French physician, used
a certain tube, which he demonstrated
would remain in the Iarynx of its own
weight. 1t was never used, as it was very
crude, and it remained for New York
physician to invent tube which. while
founded on the same idea as the French
mans, is far superior in every way.
DR.. Joseph O'Dwyer, the inventor, is a
graduate of the College of Physicians and
Surgeons of this city. Although he could
easily have made fortune by patenting his
invention he has not done so, but has freely
given it to the world for the benefit of sui
fering humanity He does not derive one
cent of profit from it. Although not one
year old it is used all over the globe, and
physicians are unanimous in lauding it.
Tracheotomy was frequently objected toby
parents who preferred to take the chances
of the child's dying to undergoing such
bloody operation on remote possibilities of
recovery No such objection prevails
against intubation, while the average of
recoveries is more than double that in
traeheotomy. The latter is now used only as
the last resort CHARLES j. RosEBAULT.

HOMICIDE IN MITCHELL.

IOMIC1DE IN VnIIChELL.
About ten days since Joe Holmes
ley, col, of Bakersville, Mitchell
county, was killed under the follow.
ing circumstances: The deceased
who was about % years of age, was
considered a desperate character in
his neighborhood. At the time
named he was at the Marion depot,
Mcdowell county, and asked Mr..
Taylor Phillips, who resides at
Spruce Pine, about IL miles from
Bakersville. to allow him to ride on
his wagon. The request was granted,
and Mr.. Phillips reached his home
about night. After reaching home
the negro wished to obtain one of
the mules, which had been attached
to the wagon, to reeross Grassy
Creek to enable him TO see a man he
wished to see. This was refused
him. Mr.. Phillips then went in to
supper, and whilst eating was in
formed that the negro wished to see
him. On going out he found his
mule saddled, and asked what it
meant. The man Holmesley was
standing by the mule, and said he
would ride him, or horse belong
ing to agentlemanthen in the house,
or he would kill any one who op-
Il
what he meant, when the negro
drew a rock upon him and threats
ened to kill him if he interfered.
Words passed, and the negro started
to throw the rock at Mr.. Phillips,
when the latter drew a pistol, shot
and killed Holmts.ey.
A jury of inquest, after enquiring
fully into the case, declared it to be
a case of self defense.

MORE HOTELS.

| MORE HOTELS.
The Richmond State, speaking o.
the proposition to erect another no.
tel at Old Point says:
"The proprietor Of the Hygeia
Hotel at Old Point will not suffer
from competition. The new hotel
soon to be built at that famous
seaside resort will be the means
of advertising the place more
extensively, and> twice as many
people will visit Old Point after ho-
tel No. 2 is built as visit there now.
1t will be still better for the public
and for the hotel owners when three
hostelries are open there.
"What would Jacksonville, Fla.
be if it had only one hotel? What
would Saratoga or Long Brench be
without a number of hotels for pleas
ure seekers to select from?
These words 80 well spoken have
like application to Asheville. What
would Asheville do if it had only
one hotel? And what would it
have done if the excellent hotels
in existence had not been so instru-
mental in attracting patronage from
abroad; attracting it here, and by
the high character of management,
retaining visitors here, giving them
time and opportunity to benefit by
climate, enter into the full enjoy
ment of scenery; more than all, to
learn the capacities of this section,
and avail themselves of the induce
ment to permanent Investments
here. In addition, to remain here
long enough to know what reports
to make to the friends they left be-
hind them and induce imitation of
their example. Therefore there
cannot be danger in the rivalry Of
hotels. The more, within reasona-
BILE limit, the better for the knowl-
edge now obtained>of Asheville and
its accessibility will turn a tide here
beyond the capacity of existing ac-
commodations.

The consideration of this question OF
